Huh? AFAIK/CT the copying happens automatically out of every app. I've had reason to try (except pdf's, images, and the like, of course). The pasting? I think it depends on the app. and how it accesses (or doesn't) the buffer used in that copy. I just surprised myself by copying from galeon and pasting into LyX directly with the middle button. (I guess the LyX folks went after that one successfully... yeah! :) Kenward -- In a completely rational society, the best of us would aspire to be _teachers_ and the rest of us would have to settle for something less, because passing civilization along from one generation to the next ought to be the highest honor and the highest responsibility anyone could have. - Lee Iacocca -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
